* can be in the "active" state. Other actions can be implemented as #GtkAction
* subclasses.
*
* Each action can have one or more proxy menu item, toolbar button or
* other proxy widgets. Proxies mirror the state of the action (text
* label, tooltip, icon, visible, sensitive, etc), and should change when
* the action's state changes. When the proxy is activated, it should
* activate its action.
* Each action can have one or more proxy widgets. To act as an action proxy,
* widget needs to implement #GtkActivatable interface. Proxies mirror the state
* of the action and should change when the action's state changes. Properties
* that are always mirrored by proxies are #GtkAction:sensitive and
* #GtkAction:visible. #GtkAction:gicon, #GtkAction:icon-name, #GtkAction:label,
* #GtkAction:short-label and #GtkAction:stock-id properties are only mirorred
* if proxy widget has #GtkActivatable:use-action-appearance property set to
* %TRUE.
*
* When the proxy is activated, it should activate its action.
